I think the explanation to this psychology is that simpler is easier to
understand.  I haven't used slrn in a while so I hardly remember the
complaints I had there.  It's coming to me now that I could only edit
one article at a time there because slrn doesn't have the window
concept.  I had to draft an article, edit another.

I'm using it now.  Trying it out.  I tried offline mode, but it seemed
not very easy to understand how to really use it, so I'm back at online
mode with some caching and using delayed articles.  Thanks for suggesting.
